Call Our Experienced Motor Vehicle Attorneys Today

Our attorneys diligently investigate every client’s motor vehicle accident to learn all the facts. This includes reviewing accident reports, statements, and medical records. We interview witnesses and investigate the scene of the accident. If needed, we consult accident reconstruction and bio-mechanical experts to learn the full extent of the accident and the forces involved with it. Michael Trippiedi knows how to put together a strong case that the insurance companies cannot ignore, and knows what it takes to make them compensate you properly.

When you’ve been injured in an accident caused by another, you deserve compensation for the medical expenses to treat your injury, even in the future, and the pain and suffering you otherwise would not have to endure. We will also get you compensation for any work missed as a result of the accident and your treatment.

Personal service is important to us. Our attorneys will guide you through the legal process every step of the way. We will tell you what to expect and honestly assess your case and its claims.

Many personal injury clients complain that their attorneys are unreachable and never call back. At Zaman & Trippiedi, we know how stressful it can be when you are injured and your attorney is not responding to your questions. We take pride in answering calls and/or returning calls and emails promptly! We will keep you informed throughout the process. And if you ever have questions about your case, all you have to do is call.

Time is of the essence in personal injury cases. In Nevada, you generally have two years after a car wreck to take legal action. The sooner you call, the sooner we can get started on your claim. Don’t worry about the costs. You pay nothing unless we recover compensation for you.

If you were injured in a car wreck anywhere in Clark County or surrounding counties, contact the car accident attorneys at Zaman & Trippiedi today for a consultation.

What to Do If You’re in a Motor Vehicle Accident

Motor vehicle accidents can be very stressful, but with the right attorney, they needn’t be. If are involved in a motor vehicle accident: 1. Call the police; 2. Seek immediate medical treatment if your pain is intolerable; 3. Seek our help. Remember: do not give any statements to insurance companies before speaking with us. We will help you every step of the way to ensure you get the treatment and representation you deserve.

Do I Need a Lawyer After a Car Accident?

If you have been hurt in a motor vehicle accident, you do not technically need a lawyer, but it is a good idea to get one. Research shows that injured parties who hire a personal injury attorney to represent them usually recover more money than those who do not. Settling car accident claims is an average day’s work for insurance companies, which have deep pockets and do not mind spending money to keep you from getting the settlement you deserve. They hire teams of lawyers looking out for their best interests. We are here to look out for your best interest and get you the settlement they do not want you to get, but know you deserve!

Should I See a Doctor Following a Car Accident?

While many people involved in motor vehicle accidents, unfortunately, feel immediate pain and suffer serious injuries, many others feel fine immediately following a motor vehicle accident. However, it is important to know that many injuries have delayed-onset symptoms, particularly spinal injuries. Not only is seeing a doctor right away the best thing you can do for your health and peace of mind, but it can also document any injuries that you may have sustained from your car accident. This documentation becomes an important part of your car accident claim as it makes it much more difficult for insurance companies to argue that you did not suffer injuries from the accident. Not seeking medical attention promptly gives the insurance companies an opportunity to downplay your injuries and limit your compensation.

How Much Is My Car Accident Claim Worth?

It is difficult to put a value on individual motor vehicle accident claims because no two accidents are exactly the same. The amount of compensation you can recover after being injured in a car accident varies. This is based on the severity of the injuries you’ve suffered, what you’ve lost in terms of wages while you missed work recovering from your injuries, any property damage that occurred, and whether you have been permanently disabled. There could be damages for pain and suffering and punitive damages, as well, in some cases. Our attorneys have experience not only valuing claims for plaintiffs, but also for insurance companies. Thus, we know the true value of your claims and will work diligently to make sure you receive full value.

How Much Does a Personal Injury Attorney Cost?

Our personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee basis and offer initial case consultations. That means you pay no upfront costs, and only pay us when we get you results. A typical contingency fee is typically one-third to 40% of the total compensation that is recovered at the conclusion of the claims process, either through a jury verdict or a case settlement.
